Student Responses to Review Topic: What To Do For Fun

There are so many options! Besides going to LA, the beach, or any of the fun cities around, there are numerous activities on campus. You can participate in intramural sports, many clubs, dorm events, and fun all-the-time activities like the gym or libraries. Nerdy, but enjoyable.

There are constant school, club, and community activities to get involved in year round. It is a nice area close enough to LA to spend a day in the city but far away enough to spend the day hiking in the Azusa hills. There are plenty of places to go to such as ice skating or roller skating that is near by. The beach is only a half hour away as well! If you feel like having a lazy day as well the campus provides areas to relax and be at peace.

You really have to seek out things here, but Campus life (called communiversity here) does a fairly good job of providing opportunities for students to get involved and have events on campus. There are plenty of hiking trips through the school as well as festivals for music and fun, but don't expect to find parties here everywhere. If you have a car, going to the beach, Pasadena and surrounding areas is fun!

APU has a strict no alcohol, drug-use (as does any other college) yet here it is like openly condemning yourself to your fellow school mates. Although parties are not obviously apparent, you can always find one if you really look (again, it's like openly condemning yourself). Outside of this, APU is right at the foothills of beautiful mountain ranges, which many venture up quite often. There are stores and theatres nearby that many students regularly go to. And being just 40 minutes away from the large-city area of LA , Disneyland, and beaches, APU students can always find something new to do.

College is what you make of it. There are not a lot of places to go around in Azusa and hang out and it is not very safe but if you embrace college life and dorm life then it will be exciting as you will just be hanging out with friends, watching movies on week nights. Though there is not a lot of off campus activities there are football, basketball, and several other sporting events that APU has to entertain its students on the weekends.

There is a movie theatre and an arcade right by the school Communiversity is always putting on events. Pasadena is just half an hour away and there are plenty of shopping activites as well as sport-like activities to engage in like sky zone and ice skating. Disneyland and Universal Studios aren't too far away and students who have passes usually go there at least once a month.

People go to the beach which is half an hour away or go to Hollywood. There is a mountain behind the school so people hike to the top for fun as well. There are always on campus events on the weekends too.
